January 3, 2007 - By staff reporter

We now know that losing as little as tenpounds can result in a considerable improve-ment in our health, especially regardingblood pressure and cholesterol levels. Wealso know that many of us are losing the battle of the bulge regardless ofour awareness that carryingexcess weight is not only unap-pealing, but unhealthy as well.The challenge at hand is to sin-gle out weight loss supple-ments that most effectivelywork to help us reach ourweight loss goals withoutputting our health in jeopardy.Obviously, one of the primaryculprits in promoting obesity isdietary fat. Our struggle withthe managaement of dietary fatgrams is primarily due to thefact that fat contributes to theappealing taste and texture offood, not to mention its abilityto promote a feeling of satietyor satisfaction. In fact, theUSDA recommends that only30 percent of our daily caloricintake be derived from fat.

In the end, what kind ofnatural options are there tohelp with weight loss.Currently, the best option fornatural treatments comes froman extraordinary botanicalknown as Cassia nomame.Cassia nomame is functions asa lipase inhibitor, which meansthat it inhibits the body fromabsorbing fat. According to aneditorial in a 1999 issue of theAmerican Journal of ClinicalNutrition, recent data suggeststhat the persistence of obesityis "most probably caused by atipping of the energy equationtoward excessive intake of ener-gy rather than too little energyexpenditure." What this edito-rial points out is that currentevidence reinforces the notionthat to effectively control obe-sity, therapy must focus on lim-iting the intake or the absorp-tion of dietary energy (calo-ries). Cassia nomame can helplimit the amount of caloriesabsorbed from fat. Cassianomame will absorb about 30percent of dietary fat eaten.

A natural lipase inihibtor,like Cassia nomame, impairsthe enzyme responsible for thebreakdown of fat, thereby blocking its function.Consequently, fat moleculesremain undigested and unab-sorbed as they travel throughthe gastrointestinal tract.Hence, their caloric or energycontent is not released into thebloodstream. Other weight losssupplements or drugs whichtargeted appetite suppressionthrough brain chemical manip-ulation or work to acceleratethe burning of fat throughmetabolic boosters come with awhole host of significant sideeffects. By comparison, block-ing the absorption of fat in thedigestive track can be an effec-tive way to reduce caloricintake without some of themore serious risks associatedwith other compounds. Unlikedrugs like phen-fen, lipaseinhibitors do not effect the body systemically. In otherwords, they stay confined tothe gastrointestinal tract ratherthan enter the bloodstream.Appetite suppressant drugs,however, end up circulatingthrough the blood, therebyeffecting all body systems withunwanted side effects.

Because a lipase inhibitorprevents dietary fats frombeing digested, it also stops theabsorption of certain fat solu-ble vitamins that are found infats, like beta-carotene and vit-amins D and E. Make sure totake your supplements rightbefore bedtime, when you’renot taking a lipase inhibitor orat least two hours before orafter you have taken a lipaseinhibitor.
